Description
The all consuming darkness has you battle-scarred submarine in a vice-like grip. As you navigate your sub through enemy waters, the only thing that protects you from a cold and premature death is six inches of solid steel. As if life itself, 5,700 metres below the ocean surface wasn’t difficult enough, the threat of impending conflict is about to challenge your very existence…

In the distance, a glimmer of light pierces the darkness and shock waves begin to roll your craft. An unknown object descends upon you. Systems indicate Torpedo! You act immediately to avoid destruction and lock your sights on the incoming torpedo. You release a Ripper missile and begin your descent, but you must go faster. DIVE! DIVE! DIVE!

The predecessor to the AquaNox series, Archimedean Dynasty is a submarine-simulation set in a post-apocalyptic world on the ocean floor. Assuming the role of mercenary, Emerald “Dead Eye” Flint, you must navigate the dangers that lurk below, including corrupt conglomerates, fanatical cults and cut-throat pirates. With a rich and atmospheric open-world, compelling narrative and dialogue interaction, and a deep customisation and combat system that rewards tactical thinking, Archimedean Dynasty is a submersive experience for nautical adventurers that like to talk the talk and sail the sail.
  • Over 60 deadly mission to get your heart racing!
  • Command 4 different ships and equip them from an impressive arsenal of over 30 lethal weapon systems!
  • Advanced AI puts your tactical fighting skills to the ultimate test when you engage in combat against extremely intelligent and cunning enemies!
  • Underwater motion simulation with drifting and currents to make you feel like you’re actually at the helm!
  • Stimulating storyline lets you interact with over 100 characters

A very unique game.

Wow! i still have this game on original Disc. I had totally forgotten about it. It was a very unique game at the time and well worth a look at this price. It feels like Wing commander underwater for the most part.

Great story

I was so happy to find this again. I played this in the 90's and loved it. I never managed to get the older version run properly on XP, which this version does. Just great.... I think other games should put some more effort on storyline, because thats an important factor for the gaming experience.

Mediocre

Nearly every level is the same and the lack of true 6-DOF means your manoeuvrability is limited to strafing runs. Most levels are the same except as the game progresses you end up turning into a glass cannon where some enemies can annihilate you in seconds leaving battles up to luck where you hope the enemies shoot at your allies instead of you. The final mission is a particular kick in the teeth where you have to clear out corridors of turrets which can out-range you, are hidden in alcoves where they can shoot through the edges of the wall but you can't do the same (and the alcoves also prevent the use of long-range weapons), and they'll destroy you in seconds. It becomes a massive slog where you pop out of cover, destroy 1-2 turrets, then hide and wait 5 minutes for your ship to heal. Get killed? Start all over again because there are no mid-mission saves.
